I needed to hear this more than you know. I am an activist and I spend most of my time giving to others. But I am also very very ill. And I don't have a lot to pour from my cup. I needed this reminder to care for myself and just take a breath because if I push to hard there is no me at all. Thank you for your words
Taking care of yourself is a gift to your mother, twofold. You not only will have the ability to care for her throughout her journey, but she also gets the peace of knowing that her daughter has her own back in all the best ways. Caregiving can be taxing, even in the best of situations. Much love to you and your family.
This sounds really hard. I can’t imagine what it’s like for roles to reverse and begin caretaking for a parent. I’m thankful her words spoke to you and reminded you to live. Things are so heavy for us who experience neurodivergence but man it’s even another level for our women. Our world knows too well women and the invisible and not so invisible script of expectations to defer dreams for the care of others. Thanks for the reminder to keep daring to take a step and embodying this with what you wrote. Wishing you rest and wellness!
